Description

This song, dating from 1909, belongs to the "parlor-song" genre - namely, songs that were played and sung, usually by bourgeois ladies (who could afford pianos), before guests in the drawing-room. The parlor-song reached its heyday at the turn of the 19. century, but has also been mentioned earlier, as for instance Miss Ingram in "Jane Eyre" or Mary Bennett in "Pride and Perjudice".
I have arranged this song for SATB recorder quartet. The full score, as well as the separate parts, are all included here in the PDF.
